Columbia Road Flower Market

Hello pretty people! I am sorry for going AWOL but there's been so much going on recently in my life. First of all, as you know from my previous post and social media I got married! And today is  our one week anniversary which Patrik and I celebrated with two mean pizzas. My wedding day was the happiest day of my life, it went perfect and I am still high on emotions. But bare with me and I will reveal everything about it in the near future. As soon as we have all the images from the day, I am gonna make several posts walking you through all the details. 

This post was shot last Sunday, so I'm a married girl here. It's so so strange to think of myself as a wife:) This post is all about the beauty of the true London gem that is Columbia Road flower market. I can't believe I've never been here before! It's my new favourite destination and I hope to visit it every Sunday to pick up fresh flowers for my home. I kept melting in front of the amazingness of all the peonies, rare kinds of tulips and cute baby cacti. 

On another note, I thought I should let you know that I am currently back home at my parents visiting my Grandma as she's been unwell and is currently in hospital. That is the main reason why I've been absent lately and I'm planning to stay with her until she's better. So sorry if my blogging won't be as frequent as it normally is. I promise I will make it up to you once I'm back and even more so when my wedding pictures are revealed. 

Enjoy this pretty post and speak soon x

Flowers in My Bag

Oh London! You are so warm and sunny these days. You leave no reason for anyone to complain about the weather. Fingers crossed it's going to stay this way.

Being in the mood for all things spring and colour I couldn't resist bringing some beautiful props into this shoot. I love spring's first flowers and always make sure to decorate my home with fresh bouquets. It makes so much difference to be surrounded by these pretty reminders. 

So here is my take on yet another casual chic outfit that is perfect for a cosy weekend stroll and visits to the flower market. Every time I find a new way to style boyfriend jeans it amazes me of the versatility of this garment. If I go back and put together a collage of all the times I wore them it would be a quite impressive 'Wear it 100 different ways' kind of guide.  

This is looking to be a very busy week for me, so stay tuned for my updates from all the events I am going to attend. I am going to try and show them to you here as well as on the Instagram (@juliashutenko).

Have a great week everyone xx

Beauty Around Me

Happy Sunday! I felt like doing something bright and inspirational today and what can be more perfect than flowers? I am quite a 'flower snapper' when it comes to my Instagram (@juliashutenko) and this is a quick edit of the latest beauties seen through my 4x4 lens. Enjoy! x

Flower Power

Floaty. Again! It's yet another floaty light dress I wore while in Cyprus. This time it's by Charlie Jade and I love everything about it. It's so easy and comfortable to wear during the lazy holiday days and evenings! And what a lovely print! I must admit that anything colour blue tends to immediately catch my attention and jumps to the top of the list of the colours inside my wardrobe. I am not even sure if it's simply a phase or a lifelong pattern. 

I have found this beautiful flower wall right behind the hotel I was staying in. I wish you could smell the aroma that surrounded me while shooting this! 

There is just one more Cyprus post yet to come so keep checking my website for the updates. 

PS. It ain't gonna be floaty anymore! x
